Tome Affinity Requirements Expanded

In 1 collection by Feztis

Description
This mod adds and changes the requirements for adopting Tier 2 and Tier 5 tomes. Tier 2 tomes will now require at least one (1) affinity point of the same affinity type (or of either affinity if dual affinity tome), and Tier 5 tomes now require nine (9) affinity points of the same affinity type instead of eight (8). Tier 2 dual affinity tomes also now require any one (1) affinity point in either of its related affinities, as they don't have that per vanilla due to Tier 2 tomes not having affinity requirements.

This should make strategizing around what paths to take in terms of empire creation as well as tactical choices for steering your empire's development while in a realm more interesting, meaning that "rainbow affinity empires" should become less common.

COMPATIBILITY NOTICE:

Of course this mod wouldn't be compatible with any other mod adding custom tomes. I'm not ruling out the possibility that I can make a compatibility patch, however, if desired.

@Feztis I found a mod on Nexus that does exactly what I was described called Immersive Tomes, so I guess it is possible.

@Feztis Oh I wasn't suggestion that you make a mod like that, I was thinking about trying to make one like that for myself, just not sure where I would even begin.

@ferreirajc87 Not sure if that's even possible with the modding tools, but that's not something I want to work on anyway. I made this mod based on what I myself wanted to have in the game, and I do not want to have stricter tome selection rules like the ones you suggest.

Been looking for a mod like this, thank you! I was wondering if it was possible to make a mod that locks you out of certain tomes depending on other tomes that you have picked. For example, if you unlocked cyromancy then you can't unlock pyromancy, and as you unlock higher tier tomes it would lock you out of opposing affinity tomes like chaos vs order.

I updated the mod to fix an issue I encountered myself in regard to no souls being awarded from battle after I picked up the Tome of Souls. Gonna test this msyelf of course, but if someone else had this issue and could confirm it now works properly that would be appreciated. Haven't received any comments about it here, but who knows.

@A Peasant Mobster I'm not sure tbh, but I think the mod in question doesn't edit the same files that this mod does.

@Puggly the Grey If you are in the AoW4 discord server you could throw me a DM, search using the same name as here in Steam (I have a different server name on the server, but the pfp is the same as here).
